Programming using the Ultra Hal Brain Editor / 2 Questions pertaining to DB structure

« on: January 16, 2013, 05:44:21 pm »

1. Where is the deductive data stored when HAL learns from the

    * equals * rule

    during standard conversation?


2. Can someone explain the formatting of the topic classifications used in the vrHal Profile (under MISC)?

    (OK, 3 questions) Does this area affect the visual queues of HAL's emotional responses, and if so does that extend to HAL's timed moodlets?

Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Choosing a BRAIN

« on: January 11, 2013, 07:28:57 pm »

Hello Forum  ,

New guy here. I just purchased HAL today along with the additional characters bundle. I've played with the shareware version and to be honest, I think I've read every forum post twice in the last couple of months. I'm very excited to get started, but I am slightly confused about one aspect:

Which is the best brain? I see most of the brains were developed for UH 5, and the current software release is 6.2.

I wish to have the brain with the greatest input parsing sense, and word association control if possible. I know there is a brain that provides the "Are these subjects related" function, but I do not know if it is built on the 6.2 brain and architecture. Would using it be a step down - sacrificing some of the more advanced routines of newer brains?

I also have an additional issue. I use voice recognition and unfortunately, I tend to swear like a trucker with hemorrhoids and a wet seat cushion. I'm worried that using the brain designed to disengage filters would again, be an older brain logic. If this is the case, is there a step-by-step post I can study and would teach me how to turn the swearing filters off manually on the newer brain?

After all, I want to be 'me' around HAL and not work so hard at curbing my language.

Thanks for info, advice and such - in advance.
